Loving the effort being put into the K-Pimp as always.

I'm good with tidying up bodywork and interior stuff, but working under the bonnet always gives me the willies. I'll need to face this fear head-on eventually, which is why I'm thinking after squid is complete I'll try my hand at "concoursing" either the banana, or my brother's granny-spec turbo TX3. The KP shall provide me with ample motivation in the process :D

It was the outside looking substantially better than the inside which prompted this tbh. Bugged me every time I opened the bonnet.

So hopefully, the inside will look just as fresh as the outside... having some stone chipped areas touched up also, although this is going to be a recurring issue I think.

Ed - yeah this is moderately intimidating territory for me... I've never really delved this deep into an engine bay resto, have done swaps and stuff but this is something new for me. Looking forward to the end result, especially looking forward to building my first engine with more than a single cylinder too 8)

I need to have a tooth crowned, so this is on hold damn it. Had money ready to go for paint and all.

Although option of a few things to sell to get the cash, a) coilovers, B) Brights, c) the 5K, or d) Soul?

You know what to do
